Service Learning and Older Adults.
Lewis, Melinda
Educational Gerontology, v28 n8 p655-67 Sep 2002
Service learning has focused on elementary-secondary and higher education, but not older adults due to a lack of adult education program experience, resources, or interest. Programs such as Elderhostel, Senior Service Corps, Institutes for Learning in Retirement, and Life Options Centers show how elders can benefit from service learning. (Contains 21 references.) (SK)
